The column labeled “b” in Table 1 shows the slope for each of the allometric relationships between organ weight and body weight for reptiles, and the column to right shows the 95% confidence interval for the slope.  According to the 95% confidence interval, which of these slopes is not significantly different from 1 (i.e. includes 1 in the confidence interval)?  Which of the slopes are significantly different from 1?  For the slopes that are significantly different from 1, does this slope indicate that the organ is growing at a faster or slower rate than the body

Question

The column labeled “b” in Table 1 shows the slope for each of the allometric relationships between organ weight and body weight for reptiles, and the column to right shows the 95% confidence interval for the slope.  According to the 95% confidence interval, which of these slopes is not significantly different from 1 (i.e. includes 1 in the confidence interval)?  Which of the slopes are significantly different from 1?  For the slopes that are significantly different from 1, does this slope indicate that the organ is growing at a faster or slower rate than the body?
